Head of Financial Performance

We are looking for a Head of Financial Performance  to join our Finance and Data & Analytics teams. More than that, we’re looking for a motivated, energised and growth loving master of numbers to help build our Financial Performance function from the ground up and work with our leaders to deliver the best results we have ever had.

Chaos Theory works at the intersection of sports, entertainment and cryptocurrency and we are hiring to grow our business like crazy. We’ve been key in the development of a pioneering product in the industry that is now one of the leading players globally. We’re now also helping to build and launch a number of new entertainment products including in the areas of predictions markets and social.

Imagine starting your day by checking the results of your favourite sporting events overnight, checking the performance of our products using the platform reports you’ve helped build and then reaching out to various internal leaders (your partners) to highlight some awesome results and areas to focus on. You then work with your team to check-in on the monthly reporting pack for this month and, after a strong cup of coffee, get ready to present to the executive team on the last quarter's performance in the quarterly business review that you chair. After that, you check in with the accounting team on some tweaks to the dimensions in the accounting system to better track some team-level information and have a meeting with marketing on return on investment. Finally, you spend some time looking at the AI tools that can help our team automate the delivery of information and reporting. You’re in control of our organizations performance and are one of the leading players in driving a new level of ownership to achieve our goals.
